CarAdvice appoints Stuart Parker national sales director

Former Carsales and News Corp sales manager Stuart Parker has been appointed national sales director at CarAdvice.

In his new role, Parker will work directly with media agencies and represent all major car brands.

 

Parker has spent the past three and a half years as head of agency sales at Carsales, but also previously worked with News Corp, as group sales manager across digital and print.

Andrew Beecher, CarAdvice managing director and CEO, said it was a delight to have another former Carsales manager join the team.

“It’s a business I know first hand and they have helped define the market for automotive advertisers in Australia. Stuart brings a wealth of experience to our team and is a welcome addition as we strive to deliver the best non-classified advertising solutions,” Beecher said.

Christian Clark, commercial director at CarAdvice said Parker had built a “solid reputation” in the industry, describing his experience as a “valuable asset” to the brand.

Parker added: “Having long admired CarAdvice, I’m thrilled to be joining the team and having a direct contribution to develop further opportunities and create deeper connections between our commercial partners and our highly engaged audience”

CarAdvice is predominantly owned by Nine, after it bought a majority share in 2016.
